Reinforcing Modern Shotcrete Systems
Essential Solution
Shotcrete is indispensable for tunnels, mines, and retaining walls—requiring reliable reinforcement to prevent cracking.
Next-Gen Reinforcement
NovaStar™ Fibers evolve beyond traditional steel mesh with PP Macro, Chopped Steel, and Hooked-End solutions.
Superior Performance
Enhanced crack control, greater ductility, reduced rebound—delivering stronger and cost-effective shotcrete.
Understanding the Role of Concrete Fibers in Shotcrete
Shotcrete involves high-velocity application of concrete through a hose, compacted upon impact. This unique process exerts dynamic stresses on fresh concrete—making fiber reinforcement essential for cohesion, stability, and final strength.
Why Use Concrete Fibers for Shotcrete?
Prevent Plastic Shrinkage Cracking
Fibers stabilize the shotcrete layer during hydration, minimizing shrinkage cracks and ensuring dimensional integrity.
Enhance Bonding and Cohesion
Fibers improve internal strength, reducing rebound and material loss during application.
Improve Flexural and Post-Crack Toughness
After cracking, fibers bridge gaps to maintain load-bearing ability, increasing ductility and impact resistance.
Simplify Application
Fibers replace or supplement conventional mesh, eliminating on-site installation of reinforcement.
Boost Long-Term Durability
Fiber-reinforced shotcrete exhibits superior resistance to fatigue, freeze-thaw cycles, and chemical attack.
